6 Checking your meter
To ensure your results are always dependable, you should periodically
check the performance of your Accu-Chek Compact Plus meter.
Do this by running a quality control check using Accu-Chek Compact
Control or Accu-Chek Compact Autocontrol solution:
when you open a new pack of test strip drums,
after you have replaced the batteries,
after your meter has displayed the bottle symbol requesting you to
perform a quality control check,
after you have cleaned your meter,
if your result does not agree with how you feel.
Please ask your local customer support and service representative
where you can obtain Accu-Chek Compact Control or Accu-Chek
Compact Autocontrol solution (see Chapter 16 “Local customer support
and service”).
To perform a quality control check you need the concentration tables
for the control solutions you are using. These can be found on the peel-
off label attached to the drum container. When conducting the quality
control test, always check that the peel-off label with the concentration
tables belongs to the test strip drum that is currently in the meter.
Read the package insert that came with the control solutions.
Press the Test button to turn the meter on.
Shortly afterwards the meter automatically advances a test strip.
Check that all the elements shown in the illustration are properly
displayed on your meter.
If any of the display elements are missing, please contact your local
customer support and service centre. For instance, if you can see ele
-
ments other than the numerals 888 on your display (see a possible ex-
ample in the illustration below). In that case, the meter will not be able
to display your test results.
Wait until the flashing test strip symbol and blood drop symbol are
displayed and the meter beeps (provided the beep tone is turned
on).
You now have approximately 5 minutes in which to apply control solu
-
tion. After this time, the meter automatically turns off. If this occurs,
press the Test button to eject the test strip. The strip can no longer be
used. Start the quality control check again with a new test strip.
